Never one to let shade slide, Joe Budden fired back on his podcast, “The Joe Budden Podcast,” addressing Yung Miami’s tweet head-on. “Let’s not forget, some of y’all can’t even spell plaque,” he said with a smirk. “I’ve been relevant for decades, and y’all just now getting a taste of success. Respect your elders.”
Social Media Lights Up
The back-and-forth didn’t go unnoticed. Fans of both Budden and Yung Miami quickly took sides, flooding social media with memes, comments, and hashtags like #JoeVsYungMiami and #PumpItUpShade. While some praised Budden for his longevity in the industry, others sided with Yung Miami, saying she’s the one keeping things fresh in the game.

Yung Miami and Joe Budden’s hilarious conversation revealed
Yung Miami was one of the many people who responded to Joe Budden giving his two-decade-old track gold. She put six laughing emojis under a repost of Joe’s unboxing video from Say Cheese TV.
When an X user suggested she was skeptical, Miami quickly responded, saying, “You can’t even release music, so what are you doing?” The former City Girl doubled down, replying, “F**k because I can laugh!”
Shortly after, Caresha reshared her old X post from August 21, where she wrote, “Can’t wait to drop my music and get in the zone!”
Joe Budden later responded to her emoji with the teasing comment, “That would be so easy…” Yung Miami laughed even harder at her response, clapping along.
So, what really happened between them? Budden’s latest podcast episode addressed a playful exchange that began on X (formerly Twitter). Earlier this week, Miami reacted to Joe unboxing his RIAA gold plaque for “Pump It Up,” a milestone 21 years after its release.
Miami’s laugh triggered Budden’s comment, implying that it would be “too easy” to roast her. She responded by reminding him that he laughed at her during his emotional ‘Caresha Please’ debut.
Like many online, Yung Miami found humor in Joe Budden’s biggest hit, which earned him a gold plaque two decades later. While it’s unclear whether she intended to insult him or not, Joe certainly paid attention.
